Load factors AS 5100
Load factors AS 5100
(OP)
Hi all,
Can someone explain to me what's the application of using load factors when safety increased or decreased. How we can determine if the dead load increases/decreases safety?
Besides, what 'site specific measurements' implies?
Cheers,

Also does "site specific measurements" means that we've obtained the geometrical measurement from the site and did the DL calculation?

The load factors for new bridges are given in Part 2.
